How can users edit the status of their post, such as changing it from "published" to "draft"?

I'm referring to front-end editing, by the way.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

You can use two post-edit forms for this; one for setting the post status to 'published' and the other for the 'draft'.
( ref: https://toolset.com/lesson-placement/lesson-placements-1621521-1612095/ )

In each form's settings, you can select the relevant post status to be changed after submission. These forms don't need to have any fields other than the submit button as their role would only be to change the post status.

Once the forms are ready, you can place them on the single post pages so that users can interact with them, accordingly.

regards,
Waqar
